 Posted: Thu Apr 21, 2005 4:42 pm Post subject: Quick Mask |
 |
|
i`m having problems with the quickmask setting. the first is instead of being a ruby rudy color it is black. the second is when reducing the opacity I have to select the whole area without lifting the click on the mouse, otherwise if there is an overlap whith the previous selection it effects the opacity. I understand this is probably a very easy fix.
please can any one out there help. |

To change the default colour of the Quick Mask from red to the colour of your choice simply double click the Quick Mask Icon on the vertical toolbar near the bottom .
The Quick mask is really an extension of the channels and should be treated as such. When you create a QM you are actually creating a new channel in the channels palette. Black is 100% visibility and 50% Grey being the lowest amount before a selection does not register as such. If you combine selections of various opacities on top of eachother if they total less than 50% opacity or less than 50% grey they will not and cannot be selected as a mask or a channel selection (any selection for that matter).
Hope it doesn't confuse too much.
